Trebor at his BestTrebor ar ei Orau

The tenor and farmer from Betws Gwerful Goch near Corwen, in Denbighshire, is one of the most popular singers of his era in Wales, and the appeal of his effortless singing voice, and natural charisma, has extended far beyond the boundaries of his native Wales. His first recordings were released on the “Ty ar y Graig” label in the mid 70s, and these were soon followed by a series of LPs on the SAIN label which took Welsh language record sales into new territories: “Dyma fy Nghân” (1976), “Cân y Bugail” (1978), “Un Dydd ar y Tro” (1980), “Ychydig Hedd” (1982), “Gwelaf dy Wên” (1984), “Diolch” (1986), “Edrych Ymlaen” (1990), “Ceidwad Byd” (1993), and “Ffefrynnau Newydd” (1998).

On each album, one or two English tracks were included and these can now be heard on the CD “The Very Best of Trebor Edwards” (1997). His first Welsh compilation album “Goreuon Trebor”, was released in 1988, and this present compilation contains 20 of the most memorable songs recorded at SAIN Studios between the years 1976 and 1990.

Ynghanol y 70au, daeth dwy record EP i sylw’r cyhoedd yng Nghymru ar label Ty ar y Graig”, y label a sefydlwyd gan Harri Parri a Gareth Maelor cyn ei throsglwyddo i gwmni SAIN. Roedd yr ymateb i’r ddwy record hynny yn syfrdanol, a chymerodd y werin Gymraeg at lais di-ymdrech y ffermwr o Fetws Gwerful Goch ar unwaith. Cam naturiol wedyn oedd cyhoeddi’r record hir gyntaf (“Dyma fy Nghân”), ar label SAIN yn 1976, a bu honno hefyd yn llwyddiant ysgubol. Fe’i dilynwyd gan gyfres o recordiau hir trwy gydol yr 80au a’r 90au: “Cân y Bugail” (1978), “Un Dydd ar y Tro” (1980) – yr LP Gymraeg a werthodd fwy na’r un arall erioed , “Ychydig Hedd” (1982), “Gwelaf dy Wên” (1984), “Diolch” (1986), “Edrych Ymlaen” (1990), “Ceidwad Byd” (1993), a “Ffefrynnau Newydd” (1998).

Yn ychwanegol at y rhain, cyhoeddwyd dau gasgliad Saesneg a gyfunwyd ar un CD “The Very Best of Trebor Edwards” yn 1997, a chasgliad o’i oreuon Cymraeg, “Goreuon Trebor” yn 1988. Parhaodd Trebor i ganu mewn cyngherddau, ac ar deledu, led-led Cymru a thu hwnt hyd heddiw.
